The Arid Lands Environment Centre lost all of it's operational funding this year and is now fully reliant upon community support. ALEC has been part of Alice Springs for 35 years, one of the only independent environmental protection bodies in the NT. ALEC monitors proposals, government policy and inappropriate development applications as well as running a range of community programs such as the community garden and the anti-fracking campaign. It is so important that this independent voice continues to be heard.
